Very comfortable gloves for everyday use – lightweight, fit well on the hand, and can be put on quickly thanks to the cuff. A plus for the materials – the grip is secure and you can easily do precise tasks, even use the phone without taking them off. They perform well at the shooting range, outdoors, or during regular tinkering in the garage. Just keep in mind that these are gloves for lighter tasks – for heavy-duty work they may wear out faster. However, at this price, it's really hard to complain. A very reasonable choice.
Mechanix Wear FastFit Tactical Gloves - Covert Black
Universal heavy-duty gloves engineered to deliver essential mechanical protection. With an optimal fit, they ensure complete grip control without restricting delicate tasks. Ideal for law enforcement officers, military personnel, shooting enthusiasts, as well as for use during survival expeditions, auto workshop duties, DIY projects, or ASG activities.
Breathable TrekDry form-fitting material, touchscreen support
Constructed with a breathable, lightweight Form-fitting TrekDry material, the upper section of the gloves minimizes hand sweating. High-durability synthetic leather on the palm area ensures excellent grip and precise tactile control, while enabling the use of touchscreen devices without removing the gloves. Both the thumb and index finger are reinforced with an extra layer of material for enhanced durability.
Cuff with ribbing
An extra-wide cuff with ribbed detailing delivers enhanced protection and ensures the gloves remain firmly secured at the wrist. The generous entry opening makes it straightforward to slip on the glove.
EN388-2131X protection standard
Compliant with the protective requirements of EN388-2121X for mechanical hazards, the gloves provide the following levels of resistance:
- 2: abrasion resistance (scale 0-4)
- 1: cut resistance (scale 0-5)
- 2: tear resistance (scale 0-4)
- 1: puncture resistance (scale 0-4)
- X: cut resistance – TDM test (ISO 13997) (scale A-F)
Within the EN388 standard, these scales specify the glove’s protection level: a value of 0 signifies no protection, while higher values (4, 5) represent the greatest durability.
For TDM (ISO 13997) assessment, letters mark protection levels: A means minimum protection, while F represents maximum protection.
The symbol X indicates either untested parameters or those not applicable.

I received gloves in a different color and in a new version, but I still consider them a good choice for basic gloves. I don't mind the darker shade of brown instead of coyote, although it was a surprise for me. I have been using FastFit as my everyday gloves for years and they usually last me for a season during bushcraft, hiking, or dog sports. The price is adequate for the quality.
-
The gloves are comfortable and even fit the hands quite well. As for durability – it depends on what we expect from them. Perfect for the shooting range, but I wouldn’t take them on duty; they’re too thin and not resistant to punctures. But the price is also quite low.
-
Very nice gloves for bushcraft or similar activities, mainly because of the inner side made of fairly durable imitation leather. Still, it's a pity that it's not genuine leather. The outer material is not very breathable and airy, even in summer, and unfortunately it's not resistant to sparks or similar things at all. The gloves fit the hand well, they fit almost perfectly.
-
Great looking, lightweight gloves. I have as many as five pairs in different colors, and each one suits me. They fit the hand perfectly, and touch screen operation works without any problems. They might be too thin for very cold days, but in other conditions, they're really an excellent choice for the price.
-
Mechanix tactical gloves are quality in themselves, the company makes good and durable products. Ideal for the shooting range and tactical operations. Durable material, quick drying, I recommend them.
-
These are my first gloves and unfortunately I feel a bit disappointed – even though the size is correct, they do not fit my hands perfectly. They also lack a Velcro strap, which makes them seem easy to slip off. I'm concerned they won't be durable.
-
They look great, very easy to put on and take off. Unfortunately, I don't recommend them for "heavy work"; I used them for about a month and a half during furniture deliveries and unfortunately, after this time, there are already holes on 5 fingertips. I recommend them for lighter work.
-
They fit very well, the colors are just as I expected, hidden in the waist bag as the first line. At the promotional price, there's no doubt you should definitely grab them. I highly recommend this model.
-
Very comfortable to put on and take off. The materials and craftsmanship inspire confidence from the first touch. This is another pair from this manufacturer in my collection, but the first FastFit, and from now on I will only buy this version – they are very comfortable.
-
For me, the gloves are just right for basic work at a forest camp. Now, in winter, they also provide a bit of warmth, and the material allows you to use your phone's touchscreen with any finger, not just your thumb and index finger – although you can forget about typing in them.
-
Mechanix Wear FastFit tactical gloves - Olive Drab are nice, not too thick gloves. The grip in them is quite decent. But I probably wouldn't buy them for working with firearms.
-
I bought Mechanix gloves for the first time (previously I had read various opinions about the durability/price ratio) along with another model, i.e. the Original. Strangely, despite being thinner than the Original, during a walk with the dog at a temperature of -5°C, they seemed to protect my hands from the cold better.
-
These are already my third gloves of this model. For moderate outdoor activities such as walking the dog and hiking in the forest, they are perfect. I recommend them!!!
-
Very good gloves. This is the second pair I own. They provide a good grip on the weapon and are also suitable for precision tasks. Of course, nothing compares to bare hands, but where hand protection is needed, it's worth investing in such gloves. I recommend them!
